The matching of planar shapes can be cast as a problem of finding the shortest path through a graph spanned by the two shapes, where the nodes of the graph encode the local simil...
This paper describes an audio retrieval system,Quebex,that works on raw audio data. The system is able to retrieve songs that are rhythmically and timbrewise similar from a databa...
We present a hybrid classification method applicable to gesture recognition. The method combines elements of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and various Dynamic Programming Alignment (...
Shape representation is a difficult task because of several symbol distortions, such as occlusions, elastic deformations, gaps or noise. In this paper, we propose a new descriptor ...
Word discovery is the task of discovering and collecting occurrences of repeating words in the absence of prior acoustic and linguistic knowledge, or training material. The capabi...
